On March 18, 2026, during U.S. market hours, HDFC filed a letter with the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited, reporting the resignation of Mr. Atanu Chakraborty from his roles as part-time Chairman and Independent Director of HDFC. The Company's letter attached Mr. Chakraborty's resignation letter, which stated that "[c]ertain happenings and practices within the bank, that I have observed over last two years, are not in congruence with my personal Values and Ethics. This is the basis of my aforementioned decision."
On this news, the price of HDFC's American Depositary Shares ("ADS") fell $2.09, or 7.28% to close at $26.62 per share on March 18, 2026, on unusually heavy trading volume.
On May 27, 2026, before the market opened, The Indian Express published an article entitled "HDFC Bank 'camouflaged' crores as marketing spend to pay higher interest to state firm." The article reported that HDFC Bank had made covert payments of approximately "Rs 45 crore," or approximately $4.7 million USD, to the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation ("MSRDC") to induce MSRDC to make large deposits with the Company. The Company offered 6.01% interest to MSRDC, a 2.51% markup over the interest offered to other savings accounts, and paid that markup by "disguis[ing] [it] as sponsorship payments for a road safety awareness campaign run by MSRDC." Reportedly, an internal probe in March and April 2026 concluded that over ten top officials bore responsibility, including HDFC's CEO Sashidhar Jagdishan.
